Intake grate for ultra

Just wondering if I should get the intake grate for my 250? I have less hook up. Not a lot less but less then stock but I GPS over 70. I have sponsons, ride plate , anti cavitation cone, pump seal kit all r/d. I also have a 1'wedge but that's coming out. If so what brand is best if any.

The best I've found for hook up is the riva, but you will lose a lil speed with it.

Haha thanks guys at least u two made it easy to choose. I'm only worried about the top end in the ocean. There's something about skimming across the waves at 70mph from wave to wave that's where the hook up counts lol
